Job description

Do you have an eye for fashion?

After a very successful start, our clothing brand PEP&CO is continuing to expand, providing affordable fashion to families in the communities where Poundland & Dealz stores already operate. We call it a “shop within a shop”; a distinct PEP&CO area selling a range of clothes including children, women’s and men’s lines.

We're looking for someone who will deliver amazing customer service by ensuring the clothing range is merchandised and replenished efficiently. Every day the store will look fantastic!

It goes without saying that you’ll have a passion for fashion and retail experience working in fashion or with clothing products would be a bonus. You'll certainly have an interest in working in a fast-paced store environment like ours. You'll be happy to roll up your sleeves to get the job done and live up to our values of putting our customers first.

On a day-to-day basis you will need to use your own initiative to ensure the store is always looking great, deliveries are efficiently received, and that everything is merchandised correctly.

As a Sales Assistant you will:

1. Ensure excellent customer service is provided in every interaction with a customer, ensuring you are friendly, welcoming, and helpful.
2. Deliver effective product availability, replenishing stock as directed.
3. Work as part of the store team to create and maintain a fun and friendly environment.
4. Live the company values, focusing on taking individual responsibility and working towards team delivery.
5. Deliver store changes/promotions in a timely and accurate way.

You'll need to be as flexible as possible in the hours you can work; we may require you to work shifts.

We're a fantastic company to work for...

Here at Poundland & Dealz, we're a fun and friendly place to work, recognize and celebrate success, and we'll encourage you to make the most of your potential.

Since our humble beginnings in 1990, Poundland has evolved into a retail powerhouse with over 900 stores and nearly 18,500 dedicated colleagues across the UK and Republic of Ireland. The addition of Dealz in 2011 further solidified our presence, enabling us to reach millions of customers with our unparalleled value offerings.

At Poundland & Dealz, we don't just offer products at unbeatable prices; we cultivate an environment where every colleague can thrive and contribute to our mission of providing amazing value to millions of customers. Our commitment to excellence, inclusion, and sustainability forms the foundation of our culture, empowering our team members to be the best versions of themselves while making a meaningful impact on the communities we serve.

We like to keep things simple, so we have just three behaviours that lie at the heart of everything we do, and they keep us on track. They are Love our customers, Care for our colleagues, and Protect the Pounds & Euros. By living our behaviours every day, we've created a land which is fun, friendly, and full of surprises — a place where our people can truly be the best version of themselves!
